Admiralty House: A Historic Seafaring Residence Step back in time to the historic Admiralty House, once the official residence of the First Sea Lords in London. Lord Roberts' visits to this grand building, as depicted in a black-and-white photograph, offer a glimpse into the past. However, the tranquility was shattered in the late 17th to early 18th century when an explosion rocked the Admiralty, as shown in an engraving. The Unknown Creator's depiction of D Admiralyteyts Huys reveals the devastating impact. Fast forward to 1937, and the Staircase Hall in the First Lords residence at the Admiralty exudes elegance and grandeur. In stark contrast, the Kitchen at Admiralty House from 1934 presents a more functional side of daily life. During World War II, Winston Churchill, the iconic British Prime Minister, led the country from the Admiralty, as seen in a photograph from 1939-1940. The staircase in Malta, painted by Ellis in 1896, showcases the Mediterranean influence on the building's design. The Board Room of the Admiralty, London, painted by Lemere between 1926 and 1927, exudes a sense of importance and strategic planning. Lastly, a panorama of Rotterdam, The Netherlands, by Jan Houwens (I), Jacob Quack, and Jacob Quack from 1665, reminds us of the global reach and influence of the Admiralty and its residents.
